I think we can do better here.  If the non-secure lockdown access bit has
been set, then proceed with the unlock:

        if (readl_relaxed(base + L2X0_AUX_CTRL) & L310_AUX_CTRL_NS_LOCKDOWN)
                l2c_unlock(base, num_lock);

I don't see any need to add a flag for this.  This also eliminates your
second patch.
